I've been researching and researching to no end about responsible breeding practices. I've learned sooo much but I still feel that I need to re-read and re-research to refresh...etc. It terrifies me the thought of having a litter with birth defects and I'd end up raising them all because thats my responsibility because thats what "I" created. But do thoughtless BYB worry about this?? Does the thought even cross their minds?? probably not. They cant afford a spay/neuter or C-section or proper vet care, but they think they could handle a sick puppy?? or a sick momma??
I think YT should put a sticky about the subject in every section of YT so that everyone has an opportunity to see it on this forum. Granted-not everyone will read it...but it would be easily seen for anyone skimming the forums.
I realize nobody is perfect but to come to YT looking for help for a dog thats whelping pups or a few days from it--thats even stupider!!! Most of us on YT know exactly where babies come from and how to prevent it if we really dont want babies. |
